I’m down another pound. I’m down 13.5 since I started. I’m okay with a pound a week. Susan suggested I look at a 1 lb. package of ground beef for comparison purposes, and imagine that not being on me anymore. It helped to visualize the pound since it just doesn’t seem like much. If I keep losing a pound a week, I am going to insist that I’m happy with it. Everyone else in my weight loss group is doing well, so congratulations . . . we haven’t had one week where someone has gained. Go us!
edit: this is a great article about “slow” weight loss for those needing some extra support.





I have the same visualization. Or carry a 1 pound can of corn around for a while and see how heavy it gets.
You are doing fabulously!! My fave visualization is 4 sticks o’ butter. Goodness. That seems like a lot to me!
That Susan is a smart chick! Visualizing the 1 lb of meat makes it easier to see that 1 lb is a big loss
I’m proud of your progress.
